As much as I support accreditation, I'm going to disagree a bit with some of the others here. While accrediting organizations exist for just about any discipline you can imagine these days, not all of them are equally respected within their fields. If you had said you were an education, business, or engineering major, I would seriously worry about going to an unaccredited school. In mass communications, though, I'm not convinced that it is equally important (the idea of accreditation may be good, but if the accreditation itself isn't done on the right bases. it can be meaningless). I just looked up the ACEJMC list, and it says that only 109 schools actually are accredited; that is only an average of 2 per state. The accredited schools are good ones, but I could think of others which are pretty strong which are not on the list - perhaps accreditation in that field is just too new. I would look at the university as a whole - are they regionally accredited? - and at other schools within the university to see if the college seems to have a drive for quality overall.

Absolutely not! Your degree is worthless, you will not be able to transfer any of those units and the degree will not be recognized by Master's degree programs or even something like become certified in teaching requiring a BA/BS. Don't think you ever want to teach? Well fine, but if you are going to go through all the time and effort don't waste it on a McDegree that is worthless.

No. It costs a lot of money to get a degree. You will have to spend more time defending that degree than one from an accreditated school. Spend wisely.

You would be wasting your time, effort and money to attend a college that does not support your major in a way that would help you in your future endeavors. Find one that does and go for it.

No. That would be a waste of your time and money.
